Michael Stanford has been an entrepreneur and strategist in Voice over IP for over a decade. His strengths are technical depth, business analytic skills and the ability to communicate clearly.

Michael has founded, run, and successfully sold two software companies. The first (Lucid Corporation) developed software for hand-held computers; the second (Algo Communications) developed application software for telephony. Algo was ultimately acquired by Intel, where he subsequently spent six years as a senior manager, ending up as the Director of VoIP Strategy for the Digital Enterprise Group.

In his current consulting practice, Michael specializes in Voice over IP on wireless networks, both Wi-Fi and WiMAX. The October, 2006 issue of Internet Telephony Magazine recognized him as one of “The Top 100 Voices of IP Communications,” and the November 2006 issue of VoIP News named him one of “The 50 Most Influential People in VoIP.”
